Chestertown, MD - GeoLock Wall Anchor system used to save a bowing wall

Before

After

Large cracks in the basement wall are a sign that the wall is failing and could possibly cave in. A basement wall is mainly held in place by straight up and down pressure, so when that wall is straight it works. As soon as the wall starts to bow inward, it loses strength. Some walls take forever to get really bad, while other break and fall apart very quickly. There is no way of telling if the wall will ever fall in, but why take that chance? Getting it fixed now will save a lot of money in the long run. It also makes it easier to sell the home if you can pass on a huge warranty to the new owners.

We have a crack in our foundation (unfinished part of basement) that is leaking in water when it rains. We would like to see if this could potentially be a serious foundation problem or a crack due to settling, and if it could be patched up with some concrete. Thanks

A piece of my well pump broke and filled my crawl space with about 2 feet of water. I am working with a plumber to get the piece fixed and all the water has been extracted but now I need my vapor barrier replaced and the area dryed out.

I have a rental property that the foundation is sinking. From what i can see it appears the house is stacked on blocks which are sinking and causing the doors to not open.

Beautiful work, great crew and the crawl space is the talk of Rock Hall. Both my plumber and electrician have been here and they have seen other jobs and they were impressed with your crew as well as the quality of the work and clean-up. Mario is an excellent crew boss and has very good customer relation/service skills. He and his team should be commended for their work.

Case Studies From Chestertown

Correcting a bowing wall is always a challenge. If we had tried to pull the wall back too quickly, we could done some substantial damage. Fixing a...

Over the course of the long basement wall then anchors are pretty evenly spaced. There is a distance in between the wall anchors that we never exceed. If we go over by even one inch it could make the wall anchors ineffective. This solution, like our other foundation repair products, are engineered...

The corner of a basement is sometimes the weakest point in the wall. For this reason we space the wall anchor plates about half the normal distance. This process adds strength to the otherwise weak corner.

If the cracks are worse in one area, we can use the height of the wall to our advantage. Sometimes the wall anchor plates are placed slightly higher or lower than the previous one. This process allows for optimal effect on the damaged wall.

Job Stories From Chestertown, MD

SmartJacks in Chestertown

This home in Chestertown is located close to the Chester River. Known for being beautiful and pristine and also for the high moisture content in the soil. This older home was built with the open vent crawl space system with a dirt floor. Allowing the humid air to stay in the crawl space and moist air to rise from the ground. Over time this helps to create an environment for mold to grow and thrive and then causing the wood in the crawl space to rot. When you start to notice sagging floors then you know you already have problem. Eventually, the floors might even give way causing larger issues. The fix for this is to sister the joists or to replace with a new beam. Once we have added the new beam we will then support the new beam and the original floor with SmartJacks. Because they are not made of organic material mold will not break down the SmartJacks. The best protection that you can have against wood rot is to encapsulate your crawl space and then use a dehumidifier. This will ensure that mold will no longer grow in the crawl space.

PolyLevel Void Filling and Concrete Lifting

DryZone was contacted because they noticed the concrete slab that their HVAC units sat on was sinking towards the house. This was causing condensation and rain water to flow towards the house. The homeowners were worried that this might cause foundation issues for their home.

To avoid ripping up the concrete slab and replacing, they wanted to see if there was another option out there. DryZone answered the call and went out to visit the home. We made arrangements for our PolyLevel team to come out and fill and lift the slab. You can see in the pictures the end product of the lifted slab and the filled void.
